The built-in Internet Information Services (IIS) of Windows system has good support for ASP, so it is very convenient to debug ASP web pages in IIS. But some friends’ web pages use PHP programming technology. By default, IIS does not support PHP. Manually configuring the PHP debugging environment of IIS is very difficult for us novices. So how can I make IIS support PHP? Here is a method to configure the PHP debugging environment in IIS in just a few simple steps.
Install IIS components
The author takes IIS5.1 of Windows XP system as an example. First, the IIS component must be installed. It is installed by default in the system. If it is not in your system yet, go to "Control Panel → Add or Remove Programs → Add/Remove Windows Components" and select the "Internet Information Services (IIS)" option in the "Windows Component Wizard" dialog box (Figure 1) , click the "Next" button to complete the installation of IIS components.

Enter the "php.exe" program path in the "Executable File" column, " Enter ".PHP" in "Extension", use the default settings for other options, and finally click the "OK" button.
